我喜欢做一个自由的灵魂。有些人不喜欢这样，但这就是我。

The great end of life is not knowledge but action.  

"I don't think of myself as a photorealist. I think of myself as a realist painter."

我不是那种会让对我尊重的爱减少的人。

I don't believe in writer's block. I believe in writer's laziness.

译文：与其在生病后去求取药物，不如在生病前做好自我的预防。赏析：任何事都要提前谋划，防患未然，事到临头才不会手忙脚乱。平时不烧香，临时抱佛脚是没有用的。
